    we have two helping verbs have and bin
  • 00:04:08
    and we have a main verb studying ate
  • 00:04:12
    this sentence is actually the present
  • 00:04:14
    perfect continuous tense in English so
  • 00:04:18
    I've already taught you one verb tense
  • 00:04:20

  • 00:04:41
    future or you're studying English right
  • 00:04:42
    now I have no idea what you mean
  • 00:04:45
    that's why we need to use helping verbs
  • 00:04:48
    to get the verb tense right okay so if
  • 00:04:51
    you say I have been studying English for
  • 00:04:54
    two years then I can say ah I know what
  • 00:04:58
